๐Ÿ” What is the SmartSwap Guarantee?


Ourย SmartSwap Guaranteeย is a completelyย FREE 1-Year Return & Upgrade Programย that gives you up toย 80% backย when you trade in a product within 12 months. No hidden fees.

  • Store Credit:ย 20โ€“80% back, depending on condition and time passed
  • Cash Back:ย Up to 80% based on the same criteria (yes, even 5โ€“10% in Month 12!)
  • If weย retire your productย and replace it with aย new โ€œBest Ofโ€ model, you may qualify for aย free upgradeย โ€” just return it in resellable condition


This is what makes us different โ€”ย real value, no tricks.

ย 

๐Ÿ” What is SmartSwap Certified?


SmartSwap Certified products are the returned through our SmartSwap Guarantee Upgrade program. Originally sold by Simply Smart, these products are carefully inspected and tested by our expert technical team to ensure they work 100% like the day they were first soldโ€”practically brand new. This certification guarantees youโ€™re getting top-tier, fully functional tech that offers excellent value without any compromise on performance or reliability.

ย 

๐Ÿ’ปย Do you offer Price Matching?


Yes โ€” in many cases we do.

Our PCs and laptops are usuallyย cheaper than Amazon, Best Buy, or Canada Computers, but if you see a better deal, email us atย tech.simplysmart@gmail.comย and weโ€™ll see if we can match it.

ย 

๐Ÿ’ธ Can I trade in or sell my old tech?


Sometimes, yes!

While we donโ€™t run a standard buyback program yet, weโ€™re flexible. If your item meets our standards and is in good condition, weโ€™re happy to work something out โ€” just contact us.

ย 

๐Ÿ“ฆ Can I return a product if I change my mind?


Absolutely. We have aย 7-Day Satisfaction Guarantee. If something doesnโ€™t feel right โ€” whether itโ€™s the weight, fit, sound, or specs โ€” return it in original condition and get a refund or swap.
After that, youโ€™re covered under theย SmartSwap Guaranteeย for up to 12 months.

ย 

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ What is your warranty policy?


Ourย Simply Smart Guaranteeย includes:

  • 7-Day Satisfaction Return
  • 31-Day Defect Warranty
  • 1-Year SmartSwap Return & Upgrade Program
  • Free Upgrade if we discontinue your item and replace it
  • 48-Hour DOA Replacementย for damaged or non-working items

For full details, visit our Warranty & Returns page.

ย 

๐Ÿšš How fast is shipping?


We shipย within 1โ€“2 business days, and most deliveries arrive inย 1โ€“5 business daysย across Canada. Youโ€™ll get tracking info once itโ€™s on the way.

ย 

๐Ÿง  What types of tech do you sell?


Everythingย except TVs and Phones. Our focus is smart, affordable, research-backed tech including:

  • Smartwatches & earbuds
  • Smart home and pet gear
  • The most unique gadgetsย you wonโ€™t find elsewhere
  • Laptops, accessories, and school/work PCs
  • Custom gaming PCs in clear performance tiers


We test and compareย everythingย so you donโ€™t have to.

ย 

๐ŸŽฎ How do PC tiers work?


We compare gaming PC performance to familiar consoles to keep it simple:

  • Entry Tierย โ†’ Like aย PS4 or Xbox One
  • Medium Tierย โ†’ Like aย PS4 Pro or Xbox One S/X
  • High Tierย โ†’ Like aย PS5 or Xbox Series S
  • Ultra Tierย โ†’ Like aย PS5 Pro or Xbox Series X


We also buildย workstation and school-friendly PCsย that arenโ€™t focused on gaming but still deliver solid performance.

ย 

๐Ÿ† How do you decide what to sell?


We spend hundreds of hours researching and testing tech to find the Best Of each year. If a better product releases mid-year, we update our pick. We donโ€™t push big brands โ€” we push real value.

ย 

๐ŸŒฑ What are your plans for eโ€‘waste and sustainability?


Weโ€™re building a free eโ€‘waste pickup and refurbishment program to keep good tech out of landfills. Some refurbished items will even be donated to families in need.

ย 

๐ŸŒ Do you really build FREE websites and APPS?


Yes! We believe websites should be free to build and maintain. We also help turn your website into a FREE APP, sync inventory with your social platforms, and teach you how to manage everything.
We only charge for paid automation solutions if you want to completely remove the hassle of daily tasks like updates, email campaigns, or social media scheduling. These solutions are often cheaper than hiring hourly staff!

ย 

๐Ÿงพ What are your return conditions?


Just make sure items are:

  • In original condition with packaging and accessories
  • Not damaged or tampered with
  • Clear of any unpaid balances


If you changed your mind, you cover return shipping. If itโ€™s our mistake or a defect, weโ€™ll cover it.

ย 

๐Ÿšจ Whatโ€™s your DOA (dead-on-arrival) policy?


If something shows up broken or doesnโ€™t turn on, contact us withinย 48 hoursย for aย priority refund or replacementย โ€” no questions asked.

ย 

๐Ÿ“ฉ How do I start a return or claim a warranty?


Head to ourย Contact Usย page and email us from there. We offerย flexible, one-on-one helpย โ€” evenย home pickupย in some special cases.

ย 

๐Ÿ’ฌ I still have questions!


For Sure! Reach out anytime atย tech.simplysmart@gmail.comย โ€” weโ€™re here to help.
